What Does It Mean?
Killing a snake signals victory, an adversary, obstacle, or hidden threat in your life will be defeated
If the snake was threatening you before you killed it, the victory will be hard-won but decisive
Killing a large or cobra-type snake signals overcoming a powerful enemy or a major life challenge
However, killing a snake unnecessarily (when it was peaceful) warns against acting aggressively without cause
